Fuel filler cap
Only a Vauxhall genuine fuel filler cap
provides full functionality. Diesel-engined
vehicles have special fuel filler caps.
Refuelling
9 Warning
Before refuelling, switch off engine and
external heaters with combustion
chambers. Switch mobile phones off.
Follow the operating and safety
instructions of the filling station when
refuelling.
9 Warning
Fuel is flammable and explosive. No
smoking. No naked flames or sparks.
If you can smell fuel in your vehicle, have
the cause of this rectified immediately
by a workshop.
Fuel filler neck at right rear side of vehicle.
The tank flap is unlocked with the doors
3 23.
Driving and Operation
Open the tank flap.
Unscrew fuel filler cap to open and
suspend from tank flap.
The fuel tank has a limiting system which
prevents overfilling of the tank.
Correct filling depends to a large extent on
proper operation of the fuel dispensing
pump:
1. Fully insert the filler nozzle and switch
it on.
2. After the automatic cut-off the nominal
capacity of the fuel tank can be
obtained by topping up with two doses
of fuel. Make sure the nozzle is fully
inserted.
To close, position the fuel filler cap and
rotate past the resistance until the cap
audibly clicks over the retainer.
Close tank flap.
Caution
Wipe off any overflowing fuel
immediately.
